| Agency | Lutheran Family Service of Iowa |
|---|---|
| Agency Description | The Lutheran Family Service began in 1901 when Lutheran churches and schools were being established all over the State of Iowa and the population was growing rapidly. It was also the time when Iowa Lutheran lay leaders and pastors recognized the pressing need to find Christian homes for the many orphaned children who were not able to live with their own families for various reasons. The Lutheranish Kinderfreundgesellschaft (Lutheran Children's Friends Society) was established to provide children with love and care until a permanent home with a Christian family could be located. A new Lutheran orphanage was built in Fort Dodge in 1930 which was to be known as the Lutheran Home Finding Society. By the early 1950’s the home had cared for over 1,000 children with Lutheran congregations continuously taking direct responsibility for the physical care and spiritual nurture of these children, in line with God’s command to care for “the least of these” that is being carried out every day in Iowa through this Lutheran ministry. |
